Drug trio shortens duration and alleviates coronavirus symptoms, study says

yet, a three-drug combination appears to alleviate symptoms and shorten the duration of hospital stays, according to a new study., notes the combination of drugs interferon beta-1b, lopinavir–ritonavir and ribavirin worked better than the lopinavir–ritonavir combination alone on patients who have "mild to moderate" COVID-19 symptoms.

"This study showed that early treatment with the triple combination of antiviral therapy with interferon beta-1b, lopinavir–ritonavir, and ribavirin is safe and highly effective in shortening the duration of virus shedding, decreasing cytokine responses, alleviating symptoms, and facilitating the discharge of patients with mild to moderate COVID-19," researchers wrote.

"The triple combination also alleviated symptoms completely within four days — a significantly shorter time than the control," the researchers added. The study, which was a Phase II trial, was conducted by researchers in Hong Kong who analyzed patients in the city-state. They recruited 127 patients between Feb. 10 and March 2020. Of the 127 patients, 86 were given the three-drug combination, while the remaining 41 were assigned as a control group.

Interferon 1-b has generally been used to treat multiple sclerosis in the past, while lopinavir-ritonavir and ribavirin have been used to treat HIV and hepatitis C, respectively.

Is this an actual scientific study? Or another anitodal story presented with a headline to lead viewers to believe this is more vetted of a snake oil hydroxicloriquine type of 'treatment' that Fox doesn't care if it turns out to be wrong because they can deny reality later.

So I’m watching the pillow and $hitty crack guy channel and every once in a while I see some Fox News stuff,

Don’t forget hydroxychloroquine!!!! It works too! realDonaldTrump MAGA TrumpTrain2020 KAG2020LandslideVictory 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Nope... Republicans are only allowed to take hydroxychloroquine

As soon as anyone else will confirm it I will accept Fox News and their claims. Just waiting.
